LOL Jim, I couldn't help but laugh. The blocking is only done on the
FTP side, the whole world can view our web pages. It just prevents
people in the blocked countries from being able to upload. Does that
make sense? I said Canada just in case one of our CCs lives across
the border. I am pretty sure we are all in North America but if
someone living in a block country wanted to be a CC, then we would
have to allow just their computer access to FTP.
